There’s a whole lot on my heart right now for us as a body. We’re enjoying a season of health, unity, and growth and it’s great to be experiencing that. I want to thank Justin Keith for speaking this past Sunday while a bunch of us went to our mentor church, Eastview, in Bloomington, IL. Although I haven’t heard the sermon yet, so many people shared what a great job Justin did. As I’m typing this, I’m simultaneously working on (praying through) sermon series for 2008 and, as ever, I get excited. There’s a rush when I dream through the possibilities when we allow God to work in us as a church when we let His Holy Spirit unleashed within our lives. I get excited when I think about life change that occurs because of God’s work in a person’s life. I get excited when I see so many of you striving to intentionally connect people to Jesus. I was at the fall festival last night – and so many of you introduced me to friends you purposefully invited to come to Forum for that event. I want to truly thank Jessie and Pam for putting that excellent event together.
Looking Forward…

This Sunday, as we’re in the Heroes series, we’ll look at the life of Abraham. This is going to be one of those sermons that is going to come at you from a completely different direction. I’ll try not to make you feel like you’ve been hit by a Mack truck, but know that there will be a lot of challenge going on. I can’t wait to worship with you this Sunday – see you then.
Don't forget to set your clocks BACK one hour on Saturday night!
